Jiufen (also known as Jioufen, Chiufen or ??), perfectly situated up in the hills and straddles the Pacific Ocean, was once a prosperous gold rush town before the 1970s. Today, with its picturesque stone walls, narrow cobblestone streets, and tea houses, the ancient city has become an inspirational mecca for artists, writers, and movie directors like Hou Hsiao-hsien (A City of Sadness) and Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away).

Yehliu National Geo Park - Yehliu lies in one of the most remarkable geological coastal areas in northern Taiwan, and is well-known for its rocky promontory overlooking the bay. Winds and waves shape the environment and make the scenic view magnificent. Local people have taken pleasure in naming the large rocks which dot the landscape after shapes which they resemble. When you see the ""Queen's Head"" rock, you'll feel like you're in the presence of royalty.

Jiufen & Jiufen Old Street - The most memorable part of being in Jiufen, without a doubt, is the long and narrow street market which stretches through the entire town. The streets are dotted with crafts, food, tea, snacks, and many traditional and playful products. Also, try some of the local foods, be sure to pick up some. Sweet taro balls, rice cakes and the grilled squid... one bite and you're hooked!

Inspiration of Animated Movie - Spirited Away, directed by the master of animation Hayao Miyazaki, won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature in 2002. Miyazaki came to Taiwan for an extended stay, and after relaxing and enjoying the beauty and scenery of Chiufen - gave birth to the animated masterpiece which has inspired an entire generation of Americans to learn about Japanese culture.
